http://nnedv.org/resources/safetynetdocs/153-online-safety-privacy-tips/4236-images-consent-abuse.htmlBillions of images are captured, uploaded online, and distributed electronically every day. As several high-profile cases have documented in recent years, some of these images raise serious safety, privacy, and legal issues around the intersection of abuse and assault, consent, and privacy. Moreover, the digital age that we live in not only allows for rapid distribution and sharing but also creates an irreversible, permanent record of our actions.

The National Network to End Domestic Violence teamed up with Facebook to create Safety & Privacy on Facebook: A Guide for Survivors of Abuse. This guide lays out both basic and more advanced privacy and safety features of Facebook, which can help survivors when they are trying to maximize privacy when using Facebook or are attempting to document an abusers’ online harassment.

For more information and to access the guide (available in several languages), visit the Tech Safety Blog.
